BACKGROUND
Technical Field

The present invention relates to the field of paper nut processing, and in particular to a production process for a paper nut.


Description of Related Art

Nuts are also called screw nuts. Generally, there are many kinds of nuts, such as hexagonal nuts, round nuts, square nuts and plastic nuts. Nuts have stronger adaptabilities and meet requirements of thread sizes of male parts, so they can all be used. It can be seen that nuts are used more widely than traditional anchor bolts. The installation of nuts is simpler. Previous traditional anchor bolts were relatively complicated in installation processes, but now installation processes of nuts are relatively simple, which brings convenience to many users and reduces the problems encountered in installation of nuts. We do not need to worry about the following situation: the traditional anchor bolts will tilt when drilling. We can directly drill holes in the case of installing nuts, and then install the nuts. By doing this, the success rate can reach nearly 100%. The design of the nuts is novel, which greatly improves the aesthetics of the nuts. There is no trouble when the nuts are not in use, and threads on the nuts can ensure that the utilization degree of screws is greatly improved during installation.


In order to ensure that an inner wall or outer wall of each nut is provided with threads, people can only select plastic or metal with a certain hardness as the raw material of the nut, and use a nut mechanism to thread the plastic or metal raw material.


However, selecting plastic or metal as the raw material of nuts increases the manufacturing cost of the nuts and cannot meet the requirements of modern society for environmental protection of packaging materials, and also, there is currently no process that can make internal or external threads on paper tubes to realize paper nuts.


SUMMARY

The object of the present invention is to provide a production process for a paper nut, in order to solve the above problems proposed in the background art that selecting plastic or metal as the raw material of nuts increases the manufacturing cost of the nuts and cannot meet the requirements of modern society for environmental protection of packaging materials, and also, there is currently no process that can make internal or external threads on paper tubes to realize paper nuts.


To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a production process for a paper nut, which includes the following steps:

    • step 1, determining a diameter of the paper nut to be manufactured: clearly knowing a diameter of the paper nut to be manufactured before manufacturing the paper nut, for example, manufacturing the paper nut with a diameter of 5.82 mm, 8 mm, or the like;
    • step 2, preparing a paper tube with the same diameter as a mold for determining an inner diameter of the paper nut;
    • step 3, selecting a first paper strip with an appropriate width: selecting the first paper strip with the appropriate width that can be wounded around the paper tube in multiple turns of length;
    • step 4, winding the first paper strip around the paper tube: winding the first paper strip equidistantly and obliquely around the paper tube clockwise or counterclockwise;
    • step 5, selecting a second paper strip with an appropriate width: selecting the second paper strip with the appropriate width that can be wounded around the paper tube in at least two layers of length;
    • step 6, winding the second paper strip around the paper tube: winding the second paper strip around the paper tube clockwise or counterclockwise after covering the first paper strip;

This can not only cut down less trees, which is beneficial to closing hillsides for afforestation, soil and water conservation and ecological environment protection, but also reduce the pollution of waste paper to the environment.
    • 2. An operator can freely manufacture a nut with internal threads or external threads according to use requirements. In the case of manufacturing the nut with the internal threads, the first paper strip, the second paper strip and the third paper are sequentially wound around the cylindrical paper tube. In the case of manufacturing the nut with the external threads, the third paper strip, the second paper strip and the first paper strip are sequentially wound around the cylindrical paper tube. Only the winding sequence is changed, which replaces the traditional step of thread processing by using a nut mechanism, thus reducing the manufacturing cost of the nut.
    • 3. The nut is provided in a cylindrical shape. The nut needs to rotate along a bolt during tightening. This requires that during the rotation of the nut along a center line of the bolt, the mutual contact area and contact force should be consistent, so as to prevent the threads of the bolt or the nut from being damaged and prolong the service life of the paper nut.

When the present invention is used: in the case of manufacturing a nut with internal threads, an operator should clearly know a diameter of a nut to be manufactured before manufacturing the nut, for example, manufacturing a nut with a diameter of 5.82 mm, 8 mm, or the like, and prepare a cylindrical paper tube with the same diameter as the nut to be manufactured as a mold for determining an inner diameter of the nut. The nut needs to rotate along a bolt during tightening. This requires that during the rotation of the nut along a center line of the bolt, the mutual contact area and contact force should be consistent, so as to prevent the threads of the bolt or the nut from being damaged. Therefore, the inner wall of the manufactured nut must be cylindrical. The operator selects a first paper strip with an appropriate width that can be wound around the paper tube in multiple turns of length, and winds the first paper strip equidistantly and obliquely around the paper tube clockwise or counterclockwise with the number of turns of the first paper strip being greater than or equal to the number of required threads, so as to meet the requirement of providing threads on the manufactured nut.
